Subject: [PATCH] net: arcnet: Fix a possible concurrency use-after-free bug in arcnet_reply_tasklet()

In drivers/net/arcnet/arcnet.c, the functions arcnet_reply_tasklet() and
arcnet_send_packet() may be concurrently executed.

arcnet_reply_tasklet()
  line 430: dev_kfree_skb(lp->outgoing.skb);

arcnet_send_packet()
  line 682: spin_lock_irqsave();
  line 690: lp->outgoing.skb = skb;
  line 691: proto->prepare_tx(..., skb->len, ...)

Thus, a possible concurrency use-after-free bugs may occur.

To fix this bug, the calls to spin_lock_irqsave() and
spin_unlock_irqrestore() are added in arcnet_reply_tasklet() to protect
dev_kfree_skb(lp->outgoing.skb).
